Briefs

Save brief

Put one brief on the Briefs board as a Draft.

POST
/api/v1/briefs/board

The concept and copy may only quote numbers their evidence carries: the cited learning_ids, the workspace's offer and proof points, or evidence lines. Refused otherwise, naming the numbers.

Requires a key with write scope or higher.

MCP: meta_save_brief.

Authorization

bearerAuth
headerAuthorizationBearer <token>

An API key from Settings → API keys, sent as Authorization: Bearer rsk_….

Authorization has two independent axes.

The scope is ranked — a key satisfies any requirement at or below its own tier:

  • read — every GET.
  • write — launch ads PAUSED, sync, pull history, edit thresholds, Values, briefs, tests, swipes and research.
  • admin — everything write can. No operation requires more than write today.

There is no approve scope. It was a rung once; it is not one now, and a key requested with it is rejected.

The approval grant (can_approve) is a separate boolean, not a rung. Changing spend on Meta — activating a launch, pausing or resuming ads, retargeting an ad set, or rebuilding a launch's live creative — needs write and the grant. Keeping them on separate axes is what makes the review gate a control rather than a convention: a key that may propose is not automatically a key that may approve its own proposal.

A key reaches the one workspace — one Meta ad account — it was minted in, and stops working when the operator who minted it leaves the workspace. The same key authenticates the MCP endpoint (/api/mcp) for a headless agent, with the same scope and grant.

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key?string

Any unique string up to 256 characters. A retry with the same key and body replays the first success (Idempotency-Replay: true) instead of doing the work twice; the same key with a different body is refused.

Lengthlength <= 256

Response Body

Created. The body is the tool's own result — the same payload the MCP tool returns.
